[1] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (11/12/2008 9:36:33 AM)
"Aroma is grainy with some corn and adjuncts as well as some sweetness. Appearance is a pale golden-yellow when held to the light with a fuzzy and bleach-white head on top that diminishes to a creamy, light lacing that sticks to the glass. Mouthfeel is light-bodied with not much complexity or balance with a palatte that is crisp and smooth and is typical in relation to Eastern-European swill. Flavor is of corn malt as well as malty sweet with an aftertaste that is of slight cardboard and a finish that is at least clean in body a smooth to some extent. Overall, sigh, just another pale lager from the land of Baltic Porter in Eastern Europe that has no real character whatsoever. "

"This is one of those beers you sample once, rate it, and never touch it again. Popping the cap emitted a very grainy, grassy aroma. It poured a nice pale gold into the glass. On the tongue it is nothing more than beer flavoured carbonated water. The taste was as grainy and grassy as the aroma. Not as bad as a Steelback, but pretty damn close."

"Great beer! One of the best Pale Lagers i've ever had, this is a beer I would buy again and again. Velvety mouthfeel, sweet malty taste I just can't get enough of, and the price is good too."

"500ml
5.2%
I tried this beer on September 13, 2007 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a translucent orangy-gold with a thin white head. The aroma was malty with hints of grass. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with high carbonation. The flavour was more malt and grass."

"On tap in Riga. Golden colour, moderate head. Moderate pilsener aroma. Typical pilsener flavour, maybe slightly more malty than the bulk of them, with a certain hoppy bitterness."
